Propagandhi Essentials

Propagandhi Essentials

Formed in the late ’80s, the progressively minded, anti-establishment Manitoba quartet Propagandhi aimed to import confrontational political content into the typically hedonistic skate-punk genre. Their 1994 debut, How To Clean Everything, came via Fat Wreck Chords, and defined the band against almost anything, with lead singer and guitarist Chris Hannah espousing anarchist ideologies (“Anti-Manifesto”), deriding commercial and teenybopper punk (“Ska Sucks”), and more. Propagandhi’s 1996 second release, Less Talk, More Rock, marked a turn into greater specificity and more pronounced political rhetoric that would continue through subsequent records. The dense lyrics that popularise the band’s discography excoriate prejudice, war, government suppression of radical movements and animal cruelty—see “Apparently, I’m a ‘P.C. Fascist’ (Because I Care About Both Human and Non-Human Animals)”.
